Fun Facts!

[FurryJunky]

Lets all hear some interesting facts that we might of never knew!
Ill start by explaining the deferences between a normal DVD player and a Blue Ray DVD player.
 
First off thies two devices work the same but that one is alot more powerfull/advanced then the other.
First off they both work by emitting a lazer that reflects off of the gooves and bumps in a CD
and is then analized by a device in the DVD player. The beam in a normal player would look the color red,
while in a Blue-Ray DVD player would be.... BLUE!
This is because a blue beam is stronger then a red beam!!!! GASP!!!
 
A red beam in term of waves is very narrowed and does not "wave" up and down as much.
A blue beam in term of waves spreads up and down alot more then a red beam therefore able to "scan" alot more.
 
This also is why the sky would look red smetimes and why the sky is blue most of the time(and why we dont see thoes red skys as much anymore"Global Warming"
It has to do with the sun and partcles in our atmosphere. Ill tell you more in-def if you want...

I remember there was a thread like this before... but I can't find it and it must of been locked,
I was trying to track down my old post.

Ok here it goes , re-posting the post I made there

These are some interesting things to grasp (I use the SI Nukes. 1 Nuke is the same as the energy emitted from the atomic bomb dropped on Nagasaki (Fat Man) in WW2)

• It would take 7.15x10^-8 nukes to send a 1KG object into space.
• 1250 cars annually in the US release approximately 1 nuke of energy in the year 2000.
• The average hurricane release 6.81 nukes of energy every second.
• If you theoretically collided 1KG of matter with 1KG of Anti-Matter; the resulting collision would release 1022.72 nukes worth of energy.
• In 2008, the world consumed 727,270 nukes worth of electric energy. (In 2010 we used 8x that much)
• If we continued on that trend we'd completely run out of non-renewable resource in 2116

Just some interesting things

Whow...
Now thats something to think about.

The last one is meant to say to include ALL energy, it also was hard to calculate due to the fact it was a geometric sequence =/
